St. John, New Brunswick. You're thinking of St. John's, Newfoundland.

Or possibly Cleveland.

Sincere congrats! Oh and also to all the Muslims whose influence was sooooo important from day one.

Or St John's, South Australia; or St John's, Isle of Man; or St John's, Surrey; or St John's, South Yorkshire.

That's the oldest ENGLISH city. Quebec is 408 years old and Montreal is 374 years old.

I have Loyalist roots, too but I also recognise that there was 12,000 years of history here before we showed up.
